Welcome
The H.O.M.E Residents’ Association (RA) exists for the benefit of the residents in Havelock Road, Outram Road, Mulberry Lane, Elgin Road and Ashburton Road/Gardens/Close. It aims to preserve, conserve and improve the environment in the H.O.M.E roads as well as in outlying areas that have an effect on our area.
Everyone who lives in H.O.M.E roads is automatically a member of the RA. The RA committee meet six times a year and distribute a newsletter at least three times a year, to keep residents up to date with its activities and to invite them to social events.
Our Success Story
In 2004 there was a planning application to demolish an old Victorian house in Havelock Road and to build a block of 12 flats, boundary to boundary and stretching half the way down the garden, on the site. Many residents objected to the application and this led directly to the creation of H.O.M.E RA.
On 31st March 2008, our roads were designated part of the East India Conservation Area - as a result of objections to a planning application at 40-42 Elgin Road.

Dear Home Members
We just wanted to thank the HOME members for the lovely display of flowers on the green at the bottom of Ashburton Road.
At this time with the shops closed and everyone staying at home, and even unable to buy flowers at the florist or supermarket it is an absolute joy to see.
We do wish you and your families all the very best and we look forward to the day when we can return to normal life.
Our very best wishes
Doreen and Ken Marriott
